- 0:01not
- 0:03>> how to fail.
- 0:06>> So, this will be
- 0:09um
- 0:11a way to pass the SWP.
- 0:15Not my way. It's the way according to
- 0:17the um assessment guide and the teachers
- 0:21notes.
- 0:24So, first off, going to walk into the
- 0:26room. He's going to give you the
- 0:28scenario of the appliance you're working
- 0:31on
- 0:33in association with the switchboard, its
- 0:35location. So the switchboard will be
- 0:38located another part of the residence in
- 0:41front of the house. The appliance will
- 0:44be at the back of the house. All right?
- 0:47You may have a couple of kids running
- 0:49around.
- 0:51>> So you have to be safe. All right. First
- 0:54thing to do
- 0:56JSA.
- 0:59>> So, is the workplace safe? Will it
- 1:01remain safe? Do glasses need to be worn?
- 1:05Completely up to you. You check yes.
- 1:08Don't take them off.
- 1:10>> Name, date, signature. Job's done.
- 1:18>> And then on
- 1:22>> I get my danger tags.
- 1:27Five.
- 1:29>> Come down at the appliance.
- 1:35>> Gloves.
- 1:44>> I need
- 1:47put down there.
- 2:02Don't drop them.
- 2:06>> I don't like it.
- 2:20We will teach you how to do this with
- 2:24two padlocks.
- 2:26>> According to the assessment rules, you
- 2:28only need one. All right. BSV stipulated
- 2:32they wanted a lockable isolator,
- 2:35>> so why not lock it?
- 2:37>> All right. Do your assessment elsewhere.
- 2:40They won't have a padlock for the second
- 2:43for the
- 2:50>> pen screw and stick. I think that should
- 2:52be it.
- 3:01>> This is the voltmeter you'll use during
- 3:03the assessment.
- 3:06>> Right. So,
- 3:10visual and audio.
- 3:14>> So you can hear it buzzing.
- 3:16>> I can't
- 3:18>> but it is you can hear it in the
- 3:21assessment room.
- 3:23Probe also comes off the
- 3:28banana leads uh for the known source or
- 3:33the banana outlets and you plug into
- 3:35that and it'll reach the appliance. No
- 3:37drama. All right.
- 3:39>> And
- 3:41when you're testing at the appliance
- 3:42terminals,
- 3:44both probes,
- 3:48>> it'll read as 240 volts.
- 3:53>> So, first thing to do is to make sure
- 3:56that
- 3:57the earth on the known supply is
- 4:00actually connected to the earthing
- 4:01system. We tell you it's a known supply
- 4:03or it's marked as a known supply, but
- 4:06how do you know?
- 4:11Can you get your gloves
- 4:21bit of a test
- 4:28roll,
- 4:30>> hang on to them, make sure there's no
- 4:32air leaking. A lot of people stick them
- 4:34up to their ears and what
- 4:38as long as there's no air leaking,
- 4:40they're fine.
- 4:47>> They seem to hold air better if you roll
- 4:49them on the side.
- 5:00>> Make sure you look at your leather
- 5:02gloves.
- 5:03Make sure there's no visible rips,
- 5:05tears.
- 5:11>> Check in between the webbing. Make sure
- 5:14there's no orange showing from your
- 5:16internal blobs.
- 5:30>> Okay. So the gloves are right.
- 5:33Ask the assessor, is this a switchboard
- 5:36associated with the appliance?
- 5:38>> Yes, it is. Is there any essential
- 5:41services I need to be aware of or any
- 5:44circuits I can't turn off?
- 5:47>> No. Okay, fine. Danger tag. It's at the
- 5:51front of the residence.
- 5:55>> All my danger tags have three things on
- 5:58it. name, date, contact number. You want
- 6:02to put any more on it, that's fine. As
- 6:04long as you got those three.
- 6:07>> Next thing to do is to ensure that this
- 6:10is connected
- 6:12trailing.
- 6:32have a work.
- 6:42Battery's fine. 3 ohm scale
- 6:50I lead.
- 7:02I'm reading zero ohms. So I know that's
- 7:05connected to the earthing system.
- 7:09Make sure
- 7:11working fine. It is
- 7:16turn it off
- 7:18and I've finished with the trailing
- 7:21lead. side. Put that away.
- 7:34>> Next, you want to make sure that
- 7:36>> the appliance frame is not live.
- 7:44>> My voltmeter.
- 7:52All right, now we're good. And
- 7:55>> make sure my meter's working,
- 7:58>> which it is
- 8:01to the frame.
- 8:16Recheck your meter because you got zero
- 8:18volts.
- 8:23>> I'm reading 24 volts.
- 8:27I know my meter's working.
- 8:32>> Just going to make sure that the earth
- 8:34is actually connected to the appliance
- 8:36frame.
- 8:46Battery's okay. 3 ohm scale 30 more on
- 8:50leads.
- 9:00>> No frame.
- 9:12There.
- 9:18It's below five. Not real good. It's
- 9:21below five.
- 9:34danger tag on the appliance.
- 9:38Been called here because something's
- 9:40wrong with the appliance. We don't know
- 9:41what
- 9:43just working. So now I'm going to check
- 9:46make sure that it's got some high
- 9:47voltage.
- 10:03Check my meter
- 10:1224 vol
- 10:17active. I've got 24 volts. So, I've got
- 10:20supply voltage. If you wanted to, you
- 10:23can go to all the others. Make sure that
- 10:25you got voltage there.
- 10:27>> I'm not going to bother.
- 10:30All you have to do is make sure you got
- 10:31supply voltage. Don't need to recheck
- 10:34your meter cuz you know it's working.
- 10:57cover the appliance.
- 11:03Tell the assessor that you're about to
- 11:06start disconnecting. There may be
- 11:08disruption to power supply. Um, will you
- 11:12be okay to do so?
- 11:22There'll be four
- 11:24>> circuits for each point in the
- 11:26assessment room.
- 11:41>> Okay. Not on the workbench.
- 11:45in your bag, your pocket,
- 11:48>> bungee cord,
- 11:50>> lanyard, anywhere. All right, except
- 11:53flying around.
- 12:23meter
- 12:26>> 24 voling
- 12:35two
- 12:39>> zero
- 12:41neutral
- 12:43zero volts.
- 12:45Earth
- 12:480 volts.
- 12:50The earth's considered a a live terminal
- 12:53can carry voltage.
- 12:57And now we go from the earth
- 13:00to the neutral
- 13:03>> to active two
- 13:08>> to active one.
- 13:11>> Active one to active
- 13:14two
- 13:16active one to neutral
- 13:20>> and neutral to active two.
- 13:23That's all combinations.
- 13:27meter.
- 13:30>> My meter's working.
- 13:33>> I'm confident that
- 13:35>> I've disconnected the right circuit and
- 13:37I've got no voltage there.
- 13:40Turn off the isolator.
- 14:06Lock it off.
- 14:12>> My gloves.
- 14:21piece of paper. Write down the appliance
- 14:23details.
- 14:40Boring diagram.
- 14:57and
- 14:59>> switchboard details.
- 15:10So, I've got dual hot water, 3600 watt,
- 15:13240 volts. Uh, from the front I got
- 15:17black, white, then red, and switchboard
- 15:21number one, row two, number four. It's
- 15:25all you need.
- 15:30>> So, I'll begin to disconnect.
- 15:44It's very
- 16:11good
- 16:42Yeah, I have to do the lock nut up as
- 16:46hard as you as you can or anything like
- 16:48that. It's just got to be so
- 16:50there's no single insulated
- 16:54>> cables coming out. And why is that the
- 16:56same
- 16:57spade loss
- 17:11in
- 17:26There's a string
- 17:45Secure a danger tag to the junction box.
- 17:52The junction box out of harm's way.
- 18:31Thank you. Stop up.
- 18:34appliance
- 18:44is going away to be repaired or
- 18:46replaced. So
- 18:49tag off.
- 18:52>> All right.
- 18:54>> So tell the assessor that the appliance
- 18:56been disconnected and um you can not
- 19:00back by the end of the day. fill out a
- 19:03uh coe non prescribed
- 19:07my details his details
- 19:10>> the details of the work that we've done
- 19:13today dated sign job's done
- 19:18questions
- 19:25>> so he will say all right um
- 19:29the pl's just been
- 19:32with the uh new hottie enclosed filled
- 19:36up with water um right to reconnect.
- 19:41>> Okay. So asking if anybody's been at the
- 19:44switchboard that he knows of
- 19:47um and you'll just check your danger
- 19:51tags, make sure your your lock still in
- 19:54place,
- 19:55>> no one's been at the isolator.
- 20:00So first thing to do is to ensure that
- 20:03the appliance is okay to reinstate to
- 20:08supply.
- 20:10So
- 20:11you're going to check
- 20:14insulation resistance
- 20:17and earth continuity of the appliance.
- 20:56Battery Check battery is fine.
- 20:593 ohm scale
- 21:02meter
- 21:05is good from the earth lug.
- 21:08Going to go to a few spots on the
- 21:11appliance frame.
- 21:14Zero ohms.
- 21:18>> Zero ohms. I'm happy that the frame's
- 21:21connected to the earth.
- 21:261,00
- 21:28500 vol
- 21:33the earth like I'm going to go to the
- 21:36active
- 21:37greater than 200 megga ohm active two
- 21:41greater than 200 megga ohm neutral
- 21:45greater than 200 megga ohm check my
- 21:48meter
- 21:50meter's working fine so I'm happy that
- 21:54The earth continuity is is fine and also
- 21:58insulation resistance minimum
- 22:00requirement for this appliance is 001
- 22:04megga ohm. I'm well above that. So um I
- 22:08can continue with the reconnection of
- 22:10the appliance.
- 22:15Next to do is to ensure that
- 22:20>> the
- 22:22cables in the junction box haven't been
- 22:25tampered with in any way.
- 22:29They haven't become live.
- 22:32Check your gloves.
- 22:59You may not
- 23:10When you're checking your gloves, don't
- 23:12check them and then put them back on the
- 23:14ground.
- 23:16>> Soon as you check them, put them on.
- 23:43I'm going to get my note out while I'm
- 23:45here. I'm going to check the appliance
- 23:47details. Make sure it's light for light,
- 23:49which it is.
- 23:51>> Put it down there so I can see the
- 23:53wiring diagram.
- 24:0824 vol working from the known earth
- 24:14to active one.
- 24:17Nothing
- 24:19active two.
- 24:23Nothing.
- 24:24Neutral.
- 24:26Nothing
- 24:28earth
- 24:31>> zero volts. So from the earth
- 24:38we go to active two.
- 24:42Nothing neutral.
- 24:47Nothing. Active one.
- 24:50Nothing. Active one to neutral.
- 24:54Nothing. Active one to active two.
- 24:59vol and active two to neutral
- 25:06>> zero vol
- 25:1224 voltage
- 25:17at the appliance uh cables
- 25:23>> so I can rehook them Sorry.
- 26:06What?
- 26:30Again,
- 26:56you don't have to do it up like there's
- 26:59no tomorrow.
- 27:07Look up your earth
- 27:10and you're active as your wiring
- 27:12diagram.
- 27:44Next thing to do is make sure that your
- 27:46earth's actually connected.
- 27:52Check your battery.
- 27:56in meter
- 27:583 ohm scale
- 28:05earth
- 28:07points on the frame
- 28:09about 22
- 28:16check
- 28:19zero I know the earth's connected
- 28:23need that anymore Oh,
- 28:42top of the appliance terminals.
- 28:58So to the assessor, you're about to
- 29:01reconnect supply. They make you
- 29:02disruption. I'm asking if it's okay for
- 29:05you to do so.
- 29:12Remove
- 29:20your danger tags, your blocks.
- 29:37So
- 29:40>> last thing to do
- 29:42>> is to ensure that you have supply
- 29:46voltage at the appliance terminals.
- 29:50So if you've got your gloves off or a
- 29:52glove,
- 29:54you need to recheck it.
- 30:27That's crazy. Check
- 30:38your motor.
- 30:44>> M's working. So known Earth
- 30:52>> to the active got 24 volts. So that's
- 30:55okay. So, what I'm going to do now is
- 30:57just go from the known from the active,
- 31:00sorry, to the neutral.
- 31:04>> I got the same voltage
- 31:07um returning from my neutral. So, I know
- 31:09the neutral is okay.
- 31:13Don't need that anymore. Don't need to
- 31:15do any more tests.
- 31:41The appliance has done.
- 31:55Right. So, your
- 31:58>> appliance been tested and reconnected.
- 32:03>> Um,
- 32:05I'll be filling out a
- 32:08certificate of electrical safety for the
- 32:11works that I've done today.
- 32:15That be nonprescribed.
- 32:17I'll have my name, your details,
- 32:21details of all the work that I've done
- 32:23today, signed and dated, and you'll
- 32:27receive that within four business days.
- 32:32Any questions?
